The Cat in the Hat

“Don't mess with the hat.”

A rainy day, an absent mother, and then a tall, grinning Cat in the Hat (Mike Myers) at the door of the Walden house. Sally (Dakota Fanning) and Conrad (Spencer Breslin) are left with their pet fish and a visitor who promises to cheer them up, and Bo Welch fills the house with his tricks. Fun and mayhem arrive together, and the film is about how hard it is for two children to tell them apart.
